(Come closer my friends and everyone listenI brought news from my homelandI'll tell you how we live and what goes onFrom my beloved homeland.)

[Verse one, Apl.De.Ap]

Every place got a ghetto this is my versionCheck it out...Listen closely yo, I got a story to tellA version of my ghetto where life felt for realSome would call it hell but to me it was heavenGod gave me the grace, amazin' ways of livingHow would you feel if you had to catch your meal?Build a hut to live and to eat and chill in.Having to pump the water outta the groundThe way we put it down utilizing what is aroundLike land for farming, river for fishingEveryone helpin' each other whenever they canWe makin' it happen, from nothin' to somethin'That's how we be survivin' back in my homeland

[Chorus]

[Verse two, Apl.De.Ap]

Yo, its been a while but...I been back home to my homeland, (check it out) to see what's going onMan it feels good to be back at homeAnd it's been a decade, on the journey all aloneI was fourteen when I first left PhilippinesI've been away half my life, but it felt like a dayTo be next to my mom with her home cooked mealMeant I felt complete, my emotions I feel!Now life has changed for me in the U.SBut back at home man, life was a mess...I guess sometimes life's stresses gets you downOn your knees, oh brother I wish I could have helped you out...Tomado de AlbumCancionYLetra.com[Chorus]
